Do 'Ultracool' Brown Dwarfs Surround Us?

astroengine writes "The recent discovery of two very cool 'T-class' brown dwarfs in our cosmic neighborhood has prompted speculation that there may be many more ultracool 'failed stars' nearby (abstract). Not only are these objects themselves very interesting to study, should there be many such brown dwarfs spanning interstellar space. Perhaps they could be used as 'stepping stones' to the stars."

I can't think of anything funny to say here. The color brown is the color of poo. I guess we are in a world of shit if it turns out to be true.
